Chapter 183: Leni's new trouble.
( Medical treatment and rehabilitation facility, Bay City.)
The front doors of the main halls in this place open and walking through the halls are Lincoln, Luna, and Lucy and of course, they brought with them the twins, Lola and Lana Johnson.
They did seem nervous to come there, but they sucked in the courage and decided to go along and see what Leni's been up to.
Passing by so many folks who have mental issues, was making Lola and Lana feel nervous and also feel bad for Leni, they didn't think she would end up in this kind of place. But from what Lincoln and Luna told them, they believe them that Leni's kind-hearted ways are still there and doing her best to help those who need it the most.
Classic Leni.
They make it to the main meeting room and the twins smile when they see someone they know and love. "Leni!"
The blonde 16-year old teen sees the twins and is surprised by their presence, just as Lincoln and Luna said and so she gets off her chair and she runs towards the twins and hugs them both. "Oh M-Gosh! You two really are here! Lola, Lana, I missed you two so, so much!"
"We missed you too, Leni." the twins continue the hug and Leni kisses them on their foreheads.
They depart from the hug and Leni looks towards the twins. "I haven't thought the day would come I would be able to meet the twins I always loved, and cared for, but then again, I did care for a lot of our siblings." She then ruffles their hair.
"We've changed Leni, so much and we're still trying to regain trust and forgiveness" replied Lola.
"Who we were before is long gone, and we're looking forward to what we can do in the future" replied Lana. "And all thanks to the couple from the foster home and our new mom."
Leni smiles. "I know, Lincoln and Luna told me." She then sees the other three walk towards her and Leni goes over and she hugs Lincoln and Lucy. "So glad to see you guys and I'm so happy you came."
"We wouldn't wanna not visit you Leni" replied Lucy as she hugs her former big sister. "You mean so much to us, even though we're not family, we'll always care about each other."
"Lucy's right, and I always love visiting you, Leni" replied Lincoln, as he hugs her, he also kisses her cheek and this makes Leni kiss his cheek and forehead. "I missed this, always."
Luna chuckles and she goes over and she and Leni share a hug. "Good to see ya again, Leni."
They depart from the hug and all of them head to the nearby table by the window and they talk.
"So, you ready and prepared for tomorrow guys?" asked Leni. She looks towards Luna. "Lunes?"
"Like heck we are, dude" replied Luna. "I got my sights to being the musical entertainment for the second time for my second ever High School Prom. Sam and I can dance amongst the crowd next year, we wanna rock it out and watch the others groove to the beat."
Leni smiles and she looks to Lincoln. "What about you Linky? Looking forward to the Sadie Hawkins Dance?"
Lincoln nods. "You know it, Leni. I may have made a mistake in becoming a trouble zone when last yer occurred…" That was made Luna feel bad, she should've let him talk back then. "But, I am so stoked for this one and Jordan is gonna be my date and we're gonna have fun."
Lucy looks towards Lincoln. "You should be careful about one thing, the chances of a mystery prize coming up. Remember?"
Lola and Lana recall that one. "Right, whoever wins the raffle gets a chance to join our mom in the teachers lounge for lunch, we kinda find it weird" replied Lola.
Lincoln felt uneasy about this. "It's not the prize this year, is it?"
"Nope" replied Lana. "We overheard our mom and the raffle is gonna be different and not some weird teacher's lounge chance for lunch. Because I don't know what you get out of that."
Lincoln sighs in relief. "Oh thank goodness, otherwise whoever would win it would get one awkward moment in their life."
Luna chuckles. "Yeah, glad that's changed."
Leni looks to Lucy. "How about you Luce? What do you have in mind for tomorrow?"
Lucy looks away and she blushes. "Well, i… I can't tell you… It's a secret and… I don't wanna say it." Her plan is to give Rocky something to show how much she likes him.
They all smile seeing Lucy like this and they all know what's going on in her thoughts, they've been through this last time when Rusty brought his little bro, Rocky Spokes.
"Alright, alright. We won't push your dark buttons" replied Leni. She then looks towards the twins. "How about you two? Anything tomorrow?"
Lola grins. "I got something for Winston, he talked to me yesterday at school during lunch and I think he trusts me now. That's one, well two because Meli is okay with us."
"Make that three" replied Lana. "Skippy trusts me too, after what happened with Lacey St. Clair and her dog, he sees me a someone he can trust and like again, and tomorrow I got him something for Valentine's Day and I know he'll like it!"
Leni smiles seeing this and hearing all of it. Brought back so many darn good memories of before when they were all looking forward to Valentine's Day, like old times. Then Lincoln asks Leni. "What about you, Leni? Got something big for tomorrow?"
Leni smiles. "I'm glad you asked, tomorrow we're all gonna have a nice Valentine's Day party, and we're all gonna be enjoying some food, games and telling each other how we feel."
Luna chuckles. "Chances they'll be talking about you Leni, you have been quite helpful to a lot of the patients and well-known as well as well-loved."
Leni chuckles, then she loses her smile. Which could only mean one thing. "Leni, what happened?" asked Lincoln. This also concerns Lucy and the twins who were hugging each other.
Leni looks to all of them and wasn't sure if she should tell them. "I don't know, it's not really an easy thing to say."
"Leni…" The gaze from Luna meant she wanted to know. "Was it Franklin Coleman?"
Leni sighs and so she tells them what happened to her, when she encountered that man again.
(Flashback.)
5 days ago, Leni is just busy going through the reports that she has made on the condition of what happened when she helped 5 fellow patients and 4 of them are gonna be discharged today.
She walks down the halls and she looks through each room with the patients inside and she smiles when she sees some of them interacting with each other and playing some board games and chess.
'I like it when times like these are peaceful. Looks like everyone here is okay with themselves and we might have more than 4 people ready to be discharged.'
Leni continues down the halls, but she's unaware that someone is following her down the halls, Leni then makes a right turn to one of the hallways, at this time all the cameras are getting some major repairs and this hallway is where the camera is glitching out.
Leni continues to walk, but then someone grabs her by the waist and chest and she tries to scream. "What..." But her mouth is covered and she drops her clipboard and is dragged into the supply closet and tossed to the wall where she hits the brooms.
Leni turns around to face her assailant, but the figure grabs her by the hair and hits her to the wall, feeling disoriented, she manages to pinch his fingers and kick him away.
Leni then tries to go for the door, but then something grabs her by her pants and then pulls on her hair and hits her in the back.
Leni falls to the ground and attempts to crawl away, but then she's dragged back and she's now face-to-face with her assailant and she's wide eyed and shocked at who he is.
At the age of 52, and standing at 6'8, a Caucasian male with black hair and beard that is lightly shaved, wearing the white clothing of any patient there and has a sick grin, it was the man she last encountered, Franklin Coleson.
Leni tries to punch him away, but then he grabs her arms and she struggles and tries to cry, but then a knife is held to her neck and this makes her scared.
The knife looks like the ones used by the doctors at the clinic area, he must've managed to break out of his room and then go after a weapon and go after her, Leni knew this would happen, but she didn't know what to do should he pin her.
Leni then slowly inches for her taser, but doesn't notice this, and then he looks to Leni's body. He doesn't say anything, and so he begins to put his left hand onto her chest and this makes Leni look away and close her eyes.
She knew what this man wanted, he was planning the same thing that he did to his daughters long ago, before he killed them. Leni wasn't going to let this man do the same to her and sure to hell she's not going to let him escape either.
Franklin then slowly puts his hand under her shirt, but he doesn't see the taser out of the pocket and now in Leni's hand. She waits, and when the man touches her she aims and shoots.
Franklin freaks out and he drops the knife, Leni then kicks him off of her and she sits up and keeps the taser shocking him. She then pulls out the spare taser and shocks him once more.
Franklin growls at this, even though it hurts like hell, he still wasn't going down. Using what's left of his strength, he charges and tackles Leni, but they crash through the door and outside of the room.
Franklin then punches Leni in the face and rips her shirt off, Leni covers her bra and backs away from the man. "Get away from me! Help!"
Franklin then grabs his knife and he goes closer to the girl, but then some banging sounds are made and Franklin stops in place as he can feel more than one object pierce through his body.
The man sees some blood from his shirt and he falls to the ground and dies.
Leni looks down the halls and sees the new guard comes over and helps her. "Are you alright, miss?" The rest of the staff and doctors go over and they check on Leni.
While the doctors ask the new cop about what happened. Leni sheds a few tears, but she says she's okay. At least, the trouble is done with and she wasn't harmed, much.
(End flashback.)
Leni then looks out the window as she finishes telling them, she then looks towards the others and sees their surprised and yet very ticked off looks.
Leni sighs. "Yeah, that happened. Sorry for not calling, but I needed some time to regain myself and now I'm doing fine again. No worries guys."
Lincoln gets off his chair and he goes over and hugs Leni and sheds some tears. Leni is saddened by this and she hugs him back, she knew this would happen and then Lucy and the twins join in.
They nearly lost Leni, and she was nearly violated and scarred. But she stood strong and faced the odds.
Luna sighs. 'That son of a bitch is lucky he ain't alive anymore, otherwise I'd kill him myself!'
Leni continues to hug the little ones. "Everything's okay now guys, don't cry now. I'm fine, no harm done and that man is gone, and he's not coming back ever again."
At least Leni was fine, and this makes Leni realize something. 'If Franklin was as delusional as he truly is, then who knows what the next patient from a prison is like and what that prisoner wants. I gotta be careful and make sure this doesn't happen again.'
A/N: Well, did not expect that to happen huh? At least Leni is fine and she's well-prepared for the next dangerous encounter, because when in mental hospital, expect the insanely unexpected. The next chapter will be Valentine's Day and then the Sadie Hawkins Dance and the High School Prom. Leave a review and tell me what you all think.
